Treasury for Children
I love this book! And I have given copies to friends for their children/ grandchildren. The illustrations are beautiful and the stories are charming and warm. Perfect book for children to enjoy!

Great stories with captivating and thoughtful artwork.
The item arrived in good condition. Owning the individual stories in singular books, it is very nice to have these stories in one volume. We read them to our very young children, they themselves read them after they learned to read, and we all still enjoy reading them -- to their children (our grandchildren) and others! I think you'll not regret taking the time to share these stories -- please do so.

Great stories for children!
Huge hit with my children. James Herriot masterfully brings to life the joys and whimsy of an English country vet as he goes about his rounds. The stories are very appropriate as read alouds, nothing to gruesome or detailed in the veterinary business, but beautifully detailed about character and life, with the delightful British humor thrown in as well.
